A TMNT Fanfic |
Leonardo Hamato is the best friend you never expected-but maybe the one you've always needed. The catch? Befriending him and his brothers means signing up for a front-row seat to a centuries-old ninja war... and somehow, you've landed a starring role.
To make matters worse, New York's most notorious gang-the Foot Clan-is after you. Why? No clue. You're too busy dodging shuriken to find out.
Amid the chaos, you get tangled up in the ridiculousness that is the Tortuga brothers and find yourself playing wingman to their awkwardly noble leader, who's hopelessly in love with a certain kunoichi. Thinking he's just tragically bad at reading signals, you agree to help him out. But somewhere between bad advice and even worse flirting, the lines between friendship, family, and something way more complicated start to blur... and you realize you've got it bad for the blue-eyed ninja yourself.

The Bravery in his Eyes - A TMNT Leo X Reader Story
Donnie turned around and started for his lab, putting his hands up in surrender. Raph averted his eyes and went over to the training dummy. It was Mikey who screamed, "Dude, is that a hickey?" Y/N's face reddened, and I turned to her slowly. "You have - I gave you-?" She looked away from me as she moved the collar of her shirt slightly to the side, revealing a pretty sizable bruise on her neck. "There's another one on my shoulder," she whispered. Mikey looked away, horrified. Captain Ryan would definitely not be proud. * * * Welcome to my first book, a Leo X Reader story! Let's put you in the TMNT 2012 universe, where you are staying with your grandparents in their New York City apartment and not much is going on. Well, until there are robots on the roof and you spot something strange, like a team of four ninja turtles fighting back? Enjoy the fluff, excitement, and adventure of being Leo's friend and possibly something more! He's a total sweetheart, so there will be tons of cuteness (and a little PG-13 humor!) Leave me lots of comments! I'd love to read what you guys think! *I don't own TMNT or any of its characters, but they're awesome nonetheless!

Everyone Needs A Hero.... Even You. A reader x Leonardo
BANG. Pain exploded through my leg, knocking me to the floor. "They shot me-my fucking leg!" I screamed, trying to breathe through the panic. My first day working at the museum turned into a nightmare when the Purple Dragons attacked. They found me hiding and shot me, and everything blurred-until a green mutant appeared out of nowhere, trying to save me and the stolen artifacts. I couldn't stand on my own, so he made a split-second decision to take me to his lair, hoping his brother Donnie could help. While recovering, I learned about Leo, his family, the Kraang, and the Foot Clan. I grew close to him-and terrified of his constant need to play hero. Every mission felt like another chance he wouldn't come back. But while I worried about him, something began happening to me: the voices, the visions, the emotions I didn't understand, especially when it came to that blue-masked turtle. Now I have two questions: What's happening to me-and can I save Leo before it's too late? Started on Jan.3 2021 Holly crap 10 reads already?!? 20 reads?!?! And someone added to their library?!?!

"Fearless Together..." (TMNT: Book 2)
It's been a year since the Sacks Tower attack, and you and Leo still aren't together. Yeah it fucking sucks. Both of you are completely oblivious to each other's affection for the other. He thinks you kissed him purely as a thank you, and you don't think he reciprocates your feelings simply because he hasn't made a move. This doesn't mean you aren't close though, because your bond with him has surely grown over the year. But that bond will soon be tested when the Shredder breaks out of jail, unleashing unworldly threats upon NYC. Now you must learn to navigate the waters of your feelings for Leo, while also stopping a giant wad of pink chewing gum from space. How hard can it be? --- You quickly looked up at him, making him pause mid kiss, "Leo I-I want to... to take it slow..." Leo nodded, resting his forehead back on yours with a smile, "Don't worry, I've already got a spot on the floor..." --- Rankings: #1 in LeonardoHamato!!! 💙💙💙 #1 in Leoxreader!!! 💙💙💙 #1 in Ninjas!!! 💙💙💙 Book 2 of 2 in the 'To Be Fearless...'

But - as fate would have it - he finds himself plummeting from the night sky. A secret concealed for sixteen years is revealed in the most unexpected of ways. A secret that Michelangelo Hamato realizes he will have to keep close to him; that may have already decided his destiny. Maybe he has these newfound abilities for a reason. Maybe that drifting raven feather all those years ago was orchestrated for a bigger purpose - and gave a greater power - than he could ever imagine. But when the unexplainable happenings begin to go haywire, the youngest brother finds himself facing even more truly all on his own. Because waking up laying on the bare earth - rather than where you know you went to sleep - can only mean more chaos to come in his already puzzling life.
